      Grace, thanks! It was one of those things that just seemed to come together! I do not know if that globe feeder is raccoon proof as I have not had to deal with any. It helps deter squirrels and larger, peskier birds like grackles, pigeons and doves but they still manage to find ways to get some seed out of it. Still, it is one of my favorites and I have dragged it around 3 different states so far!

    I can sympathize. Take time to relax a little and get your mind & soul settled. Loved your use of the pictures to tell you story!
